Mobile Phones - cheaper options

For some time been  ******** off about the cost of mobile calls in France I have done a fair bit of research, the results of which may be of interest:

  If you are a light user mobile phone calls only or a reasonably light user with internet and e mail needs as well, the following operators, which I had never heard of, are worthy of a look:

* light user.  Prixtel  (chrono mobile tarif)  1.5 euros per month   0.12 euros per min. No contract  so 1 hour per month will cost around 8.70 euros!.

They are SRF in another guise

* with internet.  Sosh.   They have a 2 hour monthly with unlimited SMS plus 500 Mo internet, no engagement, 19.90 euros per month

          Happy shopping!  Colin

This looks great Colin, thanks. But what about their coverage? Do these companies use their own networks or do they piggy back on the back of SFR or Orange?

Thanks.
